Hi everyone it's molly hope everybody is doing all right so i wanted to show you first this piece
which is similar to what i'm gonna do tonight this was a commission for a little girl's room
and it's beautiful the only issue is that her walls are gray and i just
didn't think that this would be enough kind of pop of color so we decided
to reverse the colors and this time i'm gonna do this aqua green color turquoise green
in the as the background and then i darkened up the purple just a little bit but i want it to
kind of look very similar to the way that this looks here so i wanted to show you that i don't
know if you can see the shimmer and the light but it's it's really really beautiful it just
it wasn't quite there for for the wall i am going to do a tutorial let me put this out of the way
i am going to do a tutorial on um what i do for commissions because man have i learned a
lot over the past couple of years and that's one of the things is taking a picture of the space
making sure that the painting that you have there is going to look good in that space the
colors that are chosen sometimes the client needs a little bit of guidance on colors sometimes they
know exactly what they want um so there is a ton of information i have and i will be making
a video on that so make sure you got your notifications on and that you're subscribed
i'm going to be using a purple that i made it's basically a
french ultramarine or an ultramarine um with a little bit of blue violet in there
i'm using a venetian rose which is a very pretty bright pink color i'm using sky blue and i'm using
a little bit of a graphite gray mixture that i made and i'm using silver and then i mixed
up a big tub i'm going to use this in another piece that i have as well that's an ocean piece
so paints are very thin mixed with water amsterdam acrylic and i'm going to get going on this i
painted my sides this time because i do like good coverage this is an opaque color so it would have
given good coverage but because the sides are so thin on this one they drip down very fast
now this is canvas um it's not wood and it's got like some particle board underneath it i get these
from jerry's arterama this is a 16 inch round here so i'm gonna pop the air bubbles really quick
all right and then i'm gonna blow this out let's go
okay so now that i have this down
i am thinking for contrast i might even want to do maybe even this gray
i don't know if i'm gonna regret that or not and i only have one of these canvases so i'm hoping that
this turns out well i'm gonna do my purple next i'm gonna go a little bit heavier kind of in this
section to the edge the middle i want to just be one center focal point to blow out so and i
may come back in and layer these one more time hmm which one i think i'll go with my blue next
and this is very close to the um turquoise color so and then i want the pink to be
the most predominant oh i hope i have enough
this was my leftovers from the original time that i did the painting
ah do i want any more of that gray
maybe just a tiny little bit down there i really wish i had just a little more pink
to go through this but i think i should be okay just dripping out those last little bits
and i really want this to kind of flow well so i'm going to start my blow dryer here and blow out
maybe just a little bit more purple
and one more time through with the light blue
okay then here we come with the silver
that's going to give it a nice metallic
shine
just giving it a good torch to pop all the air bubbles and i'm gonna blow this out let's see
do
bye
okay so this is very pretty there's this one little spot of blue through here
i'm just gonna kind of drag my finger along to get
kind of not rid of it but to make it blend in a little bit more so
that it's not i don't really like like super harsh lines
in the painting
i like it to be kind of soft this up here is very pretty now
when i blew the very first pass this way i noticed that i didn't have any
color right here so what i did is when i came through the second time around
i blew upwards so that the color would go within this line here and this is a little bit lagging
here so i'm just gonna drag my pink and see if i can get any pink and purple down through there
and i might even if i have any pink left i might add it right through there i'm just gonna drag the
pink down this way as well drag those colors into the center to meet maybe a little bit
again i don't want to fiddle too much but i want it to have the feel that i like
and again i'm just missing
do i have any left i hope i'm not gonna ruin it through here but i'm going to do just a little bit
of pink right there i might even blow it with my mouth
and then oh i have paint all over me and then i'm just gonna drag this on up to meet back
together there
so that it looks like it came together
and i feel like this had like some little ribbons of
like i said i don't want to mess with this too much but i don't have another canvas
okay so up i think this is really pretty i'm glad that i darkened the purple a little bit i think
it looks really nice um i was worried that all the colors would just be kind of muted and lost
and i don't think that that happened at all this space right here is something
what i'm gonna do and you've seen me do this a little bit before
i think i'm going to so this part got a little bit muddy so i'm going to
scrape that part off right there
and add just a little bit more paint
in that section and then i'm just going to add
a little bit more i'm going to do this here a little bit more purple
and then just what i have left over of this pink using it all up oh i hope that that's not a clump
and again i can drag my finger back up through there
what the heck why not just a little bit of the blue too
and then i'm gonna go with the stick again because if i pour out of there you guys know me
i pour like way too much just a little bit okay so now i'm gonna blow this just with my mouth
and then i'll drag
back on up through there okay this has a lot more color on it now i like that
and it's got some of the pink
down below there i just want to make the center a little bit more actually centered
oh yes love this now i just want to soften
that line up right there to mix that in just a little bit more
and i'm just going to bring this back
there we go
when the paint is wet like this you can really play around and get what you want
okay now i love it now i don't
i don't think i'm gonna mess with this in the center i kind of converged everything to like
somewhat of a center i think i'm going to give this a torch and i think this is good
i really like it
absolutely beautiful i do just wish i don't know you know what i think i'm gonna leave it
i think i'm gonna leave it it's got enough pink for me it has got the color like a
dark gray color in the walls but i think that this turquoise is going to stand out
really beautiful there so let me take you in let me show you it's just now starting to rain here
so this is what it looks like there's the center there's the beautiful kind of organic
details there that was that blowout originally that's really pretty almost like a petal there
trying to go slow for you
but yes i think it's really really nice all right so i will show you how this one dries
how pretty is this so i loved the one that i did with the gray base but this aqua green or
turquoise green is just really really pretty with those colors and it definitely makes it
pop a little bit more you can see the shine and when i varnish it it'll be even better
from that silver super happy with this one
well i hope that you enjoyed this video thank you for watching happy painting bye
